I found one, but I did all the work myself. I’m not under some pyramid scheme or internet sales gimmik. I’m just a good old fashioned entrepreneur.

I have been researching work at home business on the internet this last week and have found none that dont require you to buy anything or pay up front. Good luck finding one and if you do then let me know.

can you do book keeping or computer work or be a call center for a business or group of businesses? If for instance you had a secretarial services you could easily run it out of the home. taking messages and typing up things as well as doing simple book keeping for small business.
If you have computer skills the opportunities are endless.
You could do babysitting if you baby sat three kids at a 150 to 200 a kid per week that would be equivilent to a decent salary. This can also be done out of the home.
higher income people need a decent place to drop off there kids that don’t have 20 kids they are baby sitting. If you focused on 3 high income families to watch there 3 kids you would have a nice income stream and work about 9 hours a day and be able to stay home.
If you are a reader you can proof read but I am not sure if there is professional criteria for that or if it even pays well?
You would have to call some publishers to ask them.
I like the idea of a call center that can be very lucrative.
But you will have to go get some accounts. The nice thing about a call center its not a heavy expense one or 2 phone lines would do it.
Well I hope this has you thinking anyways. I will warn you most endeavors at home require education because the activity you are doing for another is mainly communication if you are doing it at home.
There are a lot of highly paid professionals that work at home. However those professionals have set up their business activities that all the communication could be done by phone and paperwork by fax. I work as a real estate investor and 85% of my work is done at home. I love getting out of bed at 9 am and commuting to my office 15 feet away from the master bedroom to my command center. My tv’s and pc screens and cell phones and fax machines and ect to follow world and local markets make leaving my home unnessesary. I know a lot of day traders and attorneys doing the same thing.
The new technologies sectors have so much opportunity it just requires an innovative mind and a creative ability to invent or add to what we are already using in the world today.Often people are just solving problems that current technology has. thigs like this can be done in a lab at home.
create a new invention then sell it to a needy consumer or company that needs your service. Think about you can do to enhance a product or make a product better. The ability to use that mind to create is powerful and keeping it thinking about the next big idea. Watch Donnie Duetche The Big Idea to understand what I am talking about. It is a tv show that discusses millionaire ideas and people that come up these ideas.
The education isn’t easy to get if you already have kids but I would highly recommend paying the price to get it so you have the ability to earn high level of income at home. PS some education 2 year and 4 year programs can be done at home online!!! Low income might qualify for grants.
Good luck I hope this helps

I have looked in the past too and there is NOTHING legit.. the only things that are legit is Direct Sales companies like Mary Kay, pampered Chef, home interiors etc. However, when you join companies like that, you legally starting your own MIni franchise so to speak… when starting any business, you need to make some sort of investment… some companies are bigger than others. They are time tested tho and legit… I make 50K a year doing one of those companies.. (its not alot of money but I stay home with my kids and don’t work 40 hrs)
